Hello Richard, There is a UK-only planet on my database account on dev. I used planet-excerpt-bbox.pl to extract the UK, this is one of Nick Burch's scripts which can be found in SVN. I also have a rather outdated UK-only planet.osm at http://nick.dev.openstreetmap.org/downloads/planet/uk-061112.osm.bz2 (November 12th) Nick
